NEW: Praise and blame of corked wines

Let's try some older wines.

Now we have German Riesling at its best.

The weather is currently very hot, so what is better than a fresh Riesling?

We taste 2005 Riesling Uhlen L.

The 2016 vintage is sensational for German Riesling. The wines possess fruit, freshness, depth, and longevity.

You have to try it to believe it - the best Spätlesen are sensational, from Egon Müller and Witwe Thanisch. Why drink Chardonnay?

Let's taste some great wines at a birthday party.

Let's taste a Berncasteler Doctor Riesling Spätlese and a Taurasi Riserva Radici.

Sorry, now we have the real tasting notes here.

Unfortunately, you can't always drink great wines, but sometimes it works out.

Today we have two wines with sensational value for money.

Riesling is the ideal grape variety if you are interested in fresh and complex white wines. Now there are two great character wines.

With its 2010 vintage, the Heymann-Löwenstein winery has produced some truly unique wines with sensational density and minerality. The high acidity means that the residual sweetness is barely noticeable. It's time to taste this vintage again.

Only the best for a birthday.

This time we have a beautiful Spätlese from Günther Jauch's winery, one of the best wineries on the Saar.

Today we have sensational Riesling from Germany - perhaps the best white grape variety of all.

We drink Sauvignon Blanc from Austria and Riesling from Germany.

Karl Erbes is still an insider tip, especially for fruity and residual sweet Rieslings.

Riesling is one of the best wines in the world, and we want to prove it. And as always, we have a champagne to celebrate the opening.

This time we have 3 great Rieslings from Rheinhessen and Mosel.

It is amazing how young and fresh the 2015 Rieslings are. The wines have potential and will continue to grow. Ideally, the wines should remain in the cellar for at least another 5 years.

We have a mature red wine from the Kamptal and two great Pinot Noirs.

Today we have 3 powerful Rieslings and a Châteauneuf-du-Pape from 1923.

There is a Riesling and a Cabernet, none of them tastes like its grape variety.

Riesling, White Rioja and Fortified are degustated this time.

After the vacation, we return to old habits and taste great wines.

There is Riesling and wines from France - Bordeaux and Rhone.

Once again, brilliant wines from California and additionally a Mosel Spätlese.

There are ripe Dom Perignon, Karl Erbes and Chapoutier. We still don't know why Karl Erbes hasn't sold out long ago, given its quality and value for money.

A sparkling wine made from Riesling with long yeast aging and a relatively young Champagne offer a very contrasting tasting this time.

Yes, one of the best red wines in Germany really does come from the Moselle, which is actually famous for its Riesling but not for red wine. In preparation for our Piedmont trip, we also drink a Barolo from Aldo Conterno, which is an alternative to the expensive Romirasco.
